What was redone, room by room

Floors

The pale stone flooring and the bedroom boards made way for a dark parquet in a large geometric pattern, in the living room, the corridor and the bedroom.

Walls

A textured beige wall covering in the bedroom and around the bathroom; in the living room, white walls and a full-height wall of white cabinet fronts, with a lit niche set into it.

Ceilings

Moulded cornices with indirect lighting in the living room and the bedroom, recessed spotlights in the corridor.

Partitions

In the corridor, a sculpted partition of faceted lacquered panels, punctuated by inserts of veined black stone, follows the curve of the wall.

The bathroom

Veined black marble walls up to the ceiling, a marble top with an integrated basin, wall-mounted taps, illuminated mirrors and a pale lacquered vanity unit. Our marble bathrooms

The bedroom

Dark parquet, textured walls, an illuminated cornice and a sliding window opening onto the terrace and the hillside.

Renovating in an occupied building in Monaco

In Monaco, most apartments are renovated in occupied buildings. The works are therefore prepared with the co-ownership as much as with the owner:

the building’s regulations set the working days and hours, and the use of the common parts;
the managing agent is notified before work starts, and some works require the building’s approval;
lifts, landings and the entrance hall are protected throughout the works;
deliveries and the removal of rubble are organised around the building’s access;
noisy works are grouped together to limit disturbance to the neighbours.

We prepare these points from the design stage and deal with the managing agent on the owner’s behalf. Our full approach is described on our apartment renovation in Monaco page.

Your questions, our answers

Can an apartment be completely renovated in an occupied building in Monaco?

Yes, it is the most common situation in the Principality. The works follow the building’s regulations, the common parts are protected and the managing agent is informed before work starts. We prepare these formalities from the design stage.

Can a marble bathroom be installed in an apartment in a co-owned building?

Yes. A bathroom connects to the building’s risers, so the work is prepared with the managing agent. The marble is chosen at the supplier’s, slab by slab, before it is cut. Our marble bathrooms

How much does a complete renovation like L'Annonciade cost?

The price depends on the floor area, the condition of the services and the materials chosen. We quote after the visit, trade by trade, with a dated schedule, so that you can decide item by item.
